In Hammond, Louisana, a
little child toddled across the
railroad tracy at Dead Man's
Crossing, not seeing a freight
train approaching at high speed

the child, toss it out of danger,

The Candidate's Lament.
Election day is oyei',
The truth to you I'll tell,
I thought I'd be elected,
But I didn't get a smell.
It cost me lots of money
To try to get the place,
My pocket-book is empty.
I'm the hind one in the race.
I once felt very jolly,
But now I'm sore bereft,
I'm needing lots of sympathy,
I'm the candidate that's left.
And since I am defeated,
I'm going to tell you plain,
May I be kicked to death by
flies
If I ever run again.
Dedicated to the majority of
the candidates.
We noticed in a paper the
other day that some man had
'stolen a blind man's wife.

her girl may graduate from a

a graduating dress as pretty as

Something, Even as Much

the orphanages of the statE
Scattered over the state are sev
eral oiphanages which are sur
ported by the various churche
and have many children to car
for and with means which ar
some'times limited. The plan o
this work day is to have every
one contribute to one of th,
orphanages of his or her denom
ination the amount earned oi
this day. All the children ar
asked to make a special effort t
earn something on that day
from a few pennies up, and con
tribute the same to some or
phanage and thus help their fel
low children who have no moth
ers and fathers.
These institutions are main
tained by voluntary contribu
tions and need all the financi
aid anyone is willing to give
While they are more in need o
cash, still the officials of thi
various orphanages are indee<
glad to receive barrels of syrup
flour or any other articles o
food and clothing which thi
general public may be charitabli
enough to contribute. Man,
barrels of flour, syrup and larg,
quantities of other foods ar,
consumed every year at thes,
institutions and they have eithe
to be bought or contributed.
The Presbyterian orphanag
is located at Clinton. the Baptis

Anderson Delegation Withou
a Lawyer,

It is rare that you find a dele

that does not contain a lawyer
Such is the case, however, wit]
regard to the Anderson count'
delegation to the general assem

and the next session of the legis
lature.
The delegation is as follows
Senate: Geo. W. Sullivan, o
Williamston, merchant farmer
Representatives: J. M a ec]
King, Belton; farmer. T. F

Oscar D. Gray, Williamston
farmer, Joshua W. Ashley
Honea Path; farmer-merchant
WV. W. Scott, Orr Mill section
farmer-merchant. J. A. Hall
Anderson, farmer.
As a rule in the general as
sembly there is one lawyer o
more in the delegation fron
any county, Of course i heri
have been other delegations tha
did not boast a lawyer, bu
these cases have been rare in
deed. Last two sessions thi
county had one lawyer membe
